-- Laboratory introduction --

Professor Yujie Sun received his bachelor's degree and master's degree in chemistry from the University of Science and Technology of China. He received his doctorate degree in chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh. He is currently a tenured professor of Peking University, Boya Distinguished Professor, a researcher of National Biomedical Imaging Science Center (NBIC), Biomedical Frontier Innovation Center (BIOPIC), State Key Laboratory of Membrane Biology, and a doctoral supervisor.

The Lab in research of dynamic processes of single molecule and living cells under the leadership of Professor Sun Yujie has long been committed to the development of single molecule biophysical technology based on single molecule, super resolution fluorescence imaging, and the research of cell ultrastructure and function, especially the three-dimensional structure and function of genome, protein-DNA interaction. He has presided over 10 national research projects such as major instrument research and development of the National Foundation and 863 Program of the Ministry of Science and Technology. He has published more than 100 related articles in journals such as Science, NatureCellBiology and PNAS, among which 11 were one author and 43 were corresponding authors. In response to the problems of high background and low resolution in cell imaging, our team developed a series of probes, markers and imaging methods, which provide important tools for the study of subcellular fine structure and dynamic processes. Using these tools, the team conducted systematic and in-depth studies of chromatin structure and function. Compared with sequencing and other research methods, imaging technology provides a unique perspective and reveals the mechanism of the advanced structure of chromatin regulating transcription, replication and other key biological processes, which has received high attention from the international community.

3. Platform conditions: The National Biomedical Imaging Science Center of Peking University is an independent scientific research institution affiliated to the Institute of Future Technology, and is the main body for the construction and operation of the "Multi-modal and cross-scale Biomedical Imaging Facility", a national major science and technology infrastructure project in the 13th Five-Year Plan Period. Imaging facility is a large science project initiated by Chinese scientists in the field of biomedical imaging. The main construction contents include core imaging facilities, full-scale image integration system and related auxiliary platforms. The total investment of construction is 1.717 billion yuan. The goal of the construction is to create a "one-stop" cluster of large-scale facilities for biomedical imaging technology with seamless connection in the spatio-temporal scale and imaging modes, and provide revolutionary new technologies, new means and new tools for biomedical research, which is expected to usher in a new research paradigm and produce major original breakthroughs. The construction of imaging facilities involves many disciplines and majors such as biology, medicine, physics, mathematics, chemistry, computer, information, engineering, etc., jointly promoting imaging omics, an emerging interdisciplinary frontier subject with a large span and deep integration. The applicant will deeply participate in the construction of facilities, get extensive cross-cooperation opportunities, and carry out organized scientific research and industrial transformation based on large scientific facilities.
